Consider a closed economy to which the Keynesian-cross analysis applies.Consumption is given by the equation C = 200 + 2/3(Y - T).Planned investment is 300,as are government spending and taxes.a.If Y is 1,500,what is planned spending? What is inventory accumulation or decumulation? Should equilibrium Y be higher or lower than 1,500? b.What is equilibrium Y? (Hint: Substitute the values of equations for planned consumption,investment,and government spending into the equation Y = C + I + G and then solve for Y.) c.What are equilibrium consumption,private saving,public saving,and national saving? d.How much does equilibrium income decrease when G is reduced to 200? What is the multiplier for government spending?
